Body, Soul, Patient

The present short paper is a reflection on some of the issues and ideas presented in articles published in Replika 105 (released in 15 December 2017) under the title “Body, Spirit, Society“. The author of the present paper explains that the greatest chance for healing is when communication between the parties starts, dialogue begins and, finally, cooperation is established. This relationship can, and should be, studied from the perspective of both the physician and the patient. This article develops the latter option.
